IMAGES: JORGE MORALES Standing head and shoulders above the streets of Los Boliches – at the quieter, residential end of Fuengirola – when you enter the property it’s like being in a world of your own. From the vast, wrap-around private terraces the bird’s eye views stretch all the way from La Cala Golf and the rugged Sierra de Mijas mountains to Benalmádena and beyond, while to the south there’s a seemingly endless expanse of inviting blue sea. Even when you’re indoors, the windows of each and every room literally frame the sky, flooding the interior with natural light.
The story so far… The owners bought this property as a brand new holiday home in 1978. Returning each summer with their children, since 2005 it’s been the couple’s permanent residence. As it was originally designed by the developer for his own personal use, the penthouse was built and equipped to superior standards and it’s been renovated and carefully maintained over the years.
“We love it here,” the owners enthuse. “Although we travel a lot, we’ve always had a soft spot for Los Boliches. We have so many good friends here – in some cases three generations of the same family!”
They enjoy the beach and walking on the seafront and say there are so many good restaurants that they’re spoilt for choice. They also reminisce about buying fish straight from the fishermen's nets, and in many ways Los Boliches still has its original village atmosphere. The owners have no plans to leave the area, but with their family grown up are now looking for a smaller property nearby.
With three reception rooms – a formal dining room, plus two diaphanous sitting rooms – five spacious bedrooms, four bathrooms, a large entrance hall and an over-sized kitchen, not to mention a laundry room, pantry and more built-in wardrobes and storage space than even the most dedicated of shoppers could ever hope to fill, this versatile property would make the perfect family residence, the ultimate holiday home, and also has masses of rental potential.
Fuengirola is the only town in Spain that's been awarded an EU Blue Flag for every single one of its seven sandy beaches. Wish you were here?
